Original Note:
The RU MoD is inaccurate regarding her history. At least 2 Russian female pilots actually have a higher kill ratio in WW2; Osipenko & Ivanova. Also, she was not defending Donbass. But involved in the battle of Kursk and downed near Orel, USSR then, now Russian Federation. https://ww2gravestone.com/lidija-litvjak-white-lily-of-stalingrad/ https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2017/10/06/short-daring-life-lilya-litvyak-white-rose-stalingrad/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polina_Osipenko
